Evaluating Two Vastly Different Proposals

On today’s show we are talking about how to evaluate a proposal from a consultant. We are going to look at two proposals from different geotechnical engineers. These two proposals differ significantly in both price and scope. One proposal is nearly double the price of the other. How would you evaluate which quote to accept? Which proposal is better?

Let’s start with even asking the question: Why do you need a geotechnical engineer? What do they do, and why do you even need to spend money on this?

The geotechnical engineer does an analysis of the soil stability on your development site. They determine what it will take for your building to stay standing over the lifecycle of the building.
